Refrigeration and air conditioning
The text begins by reviewing, in a simple and precise manner, the physical principles of three pillars of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning, namely thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid mechanics. Following an overview of the history of refrigeration, subsequent chapters pro…
A concise, systematic treatment of essential theories and practical aspects of refrigeration and air-conditioning systems. The book is designed for students pursuing courses in mechanical engineering with a view to equipping them with the fundamentals of the methodologies used f…
This book offers a practical introduction to helium refrigeration engineering, taking a logical and structured approach to the design, building, commissioning, operation and maintenance of refrigeration systems. It begins with a short refresher of cryogenic principles, and a rev…
